Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how World Cup Predictor 2026 ("we", "us", "our", or "the Site") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit worldcuppredictor.com (the "Site"). By using the Site, you agree to the practices described below.

Information You Provide

The core match analysis tool requires no account, login, or personal information — team names you type are processed entirely in your browser and are never transmitted to or stored on our servers. If you use our Contact form, the name, email address, and message you choose to provide are sent via your own email client and are not stored in any database we control.

Information Collected Automatically

Like most websites, we and our third-party partners (described below) may automatically collect certain technical information when you visit, including your IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, referring URLs, and approximate location derived from IP address. This is collected via cookies and similar tracking technologies.

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on this Site. Google AdSense uses cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this Site or other websites, and to measure ad performance.

• Google may use the DoubleClick cookie to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites.
• You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings.
• You can also opt out of third-party vendor use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.
• Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to our Site or other sites on the Internet.

For more information on how Google uses information from sites that use its services, please visit Google's Privacy & Terms page.

We may use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with the Site (e.g., pages viewed, session duration, bounce rate). Google Analytics uses first-party cookies to collect anonymized usage statistics. No personally identifiable information is collected through Google Analytics on this Site. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We use, or our advertising/analytics partners use, the following categories of cookies:

Cookie Type	Purpose
Advertising cookies (AdSense)	Serve relevant ads and measure ad performance
Analytics cookies	Understand site traffic and usage patterns
Functional cookies	Remember basic preferences during your session

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings at any time. Disabling cookies may affect ad personalization but will not affect the core functionality of the match analysis tool.

We do not sell, rent, or trade any personal information to third parties. We do not require account creation and do not store match-analysis inputs (team selections) beyond your current browser session. Any data processed by third-party services (Google AdSense, Google Analytics) is governed by those companies' own privacy policies, linked above.

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), including the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal data, and the right to data portability. Because this Site collects minimal personal data directly, most data processing relevant to GDPR occurs through our third-party advertising and analytics partners. You can exercise your rights with Google directly via their My Account privacy controls. For any requests related to data you've submitted via our Contact form, email us at support@worldcuppredictor.com.

This Site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, regulatory, or operational reasons. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
